Product description

The P8117 is a low cat carrier and small dog carrier for airlines with a 20 cm height limit under the seat. Fold the top down and the bag sits at 40 × 28 × 20 cm.

Before boarding, unzip the pop-up top and your pet gets an extra 7 cm to sit up and look around. Zip it back down when it is time to slide the bag under the seat in front of you.

Hexagonal mesh wraps the front, back, sides and top, so air moves through from every direction and your pet doesn't get stuffy on a long wait. The mesh is tougher than standard netting and stands up to claws.

The body is made from a thick, hard-wearing fabric that holds its shape, so the bag stays upright and doesn't sag when your pet moves around. Carry it by the handles or on the shoulder strap, or slide the back strap over a suitcase handle. The large back pocket holds treats, wipes and a lead.

At home, it folds flat in one piece.
